Chapter 462: Skylight
Liu Hailong's back had just disappeared from the deck, and the crowd had already crowded to the side of the ship.
Although the travelers at the head of the tide have noticed that something is not good, they have begun to stagnate, and they are shouting in the wind and rain not to rush forward.
But the people behind still ignored the crowding, and soon the passengers in the front row were like dumplings, and they tumbled down from the side of the boat and fell upside down to the sea.
If you are lucky enough to fall in deep water, the height of the boat close to 20 meters after the draft is not fatal, at most it is a fracture of the arm and spine, and if you are not swept away by the waves, you can have a chance of survival.
If you are unlucky enough to fall into the shallow water where the reef is hidden, it will be a life, and even if you float up, you will become a broken corpse.
Standing on the deck of the rescue boat, watching the red-dyed sea water blur with the pouring rain, Tian Fusheng held the megaphone and roared angrily: "Liu Hailong, what the hell are you doing?
Everyone was ready to salvage the wounded who had fallen overboard.
Let's do it, fast, fast, fast!"
With the order of the detachment commander, the rescue ship began to salvage the wounded.
At this time, Liu Hailong had already jumped back to Tian Fusheng's side, and explained with a gloomy face: "Detachment, that captain is a chick, and the 'common sense of dealing with shipwrecks at sea' that he has learned is all drunk in his stomach with fish porridge."
After hitting the rock, I casually let the guests go to the deck, and it was a complete mess, I was almost squeezed down just now, and I had to ..."
"Don't talk nonsense, do you see the captain?" Tian Fusheng interrupted the words of his subordinate generals with a solemn expression.
"No, he didn't come out at all. Liu Hailong shook his head and said.
"Then you go up again at once, and be sure to get in touch with the captain.
We must rely on his authority to carry out a comprehensive rescue. Tian Fusheng said.
"Yes. Accepting the order, Liu Hailong did not bargain, his face was solemn, and he responded immediately.
Turning around and looking up, he looked at the chain ladder he had climbed down, and with the light of lightning, he saw that in just a few moments, the chain ladder was already full of people.
However, the use of this special soft ladder requires professional training, and the torrential rain and howling hurricane have also made it much more difficult to climb, and there is no one who can successfully escape like him.
"This captain is really damned!" Seeing that the lifesaving ropeway he built with his own hands had become a hell passage, Liu Hailong gritted his teeth and roared angrily.
I couldn't help but roar and explained: "That chain ladder is for rescuers to climb onto the boat, you can't use it, don't look for death!"
"At this time, I pretended to be kind, can you stop the people who want to live to find death, and don't go to the captain!" The voice landed, and Tian Fusheng's reprimand voice came from behind him.
Liu Hailong gritted his teeth, no longer talking nonsense in vain, and still used the javelin-style rope throwing ropeway to climb towards the shipwreck.
Tian Fusheng looked at his disappearing back, clenched his fists, and muttered, "Please, Hailong!"
Retracting his gaze, he began to continue directing the rescue.
After a while, the wind and waves became more turbulent, and the hull of the shipwrecked passenger ship began to slowly sway and tilt.
Once a ship of this size is overturned, not to mention smashing in the direction where the rescue ship is located, it will definitely be smashed into cakes with the boat and people.
Even if it misses, the whirlpool caused by the sinking of its huge hull alone is enough to engulf the entire crew of the third detachment of the Niuhoi Port Shipwreck Rescue Brigade to be martyred.
"Fish egg board, this is a terrible cake!" Looking at the swinging passenger ferry, Tian Fusheng, who had been standing like a pine for dozens of minutes after being poured by the torrential rain, shivered, and didn't care about anything else.
He used a satellite phone to communicate with the only rescue ship in the detachment, and asked urgently: "How is the hole repaired?"
Is it possible for a passenger ship to reverse the reef in the direction of the undercurrent?"
"The hole that can be repaired has been almost repaired, and it shouldn't be a problem to open it temporarily.
However, the direction of the undercurrent has always been straight towards the reef, and it should not be possible to change direction in a short time. "After a moment's wait, sad news came over the phone.
Liu Hailong pondered for a moment when he heard this, gritted his back molars and ordered: "After repairing the hole, you will leave the floating reef area immediately." ”
At this time, Liu Hailong, who had already boarded the deck of the passenger ship again, finally found the first mate of the shipwrecked ship, and he didn't have time to explain too much, so he directly asked sharply: "What about the captain, where is your captain?"
"Don't worry about the captain, if you can escape, run for your life!" carried a rubber life raft with a few sailors, hesitated and didn't dare to forget the first mate who jumped in the sea, thinking that the sturdy young man in front of him was a passenger on the ship, and said with a wry smile: "There are life rafts in the warehouse, and there is no shortage of life jackets..."
"I am the operational patriarch of the third detachment of the Port Cattle Rescue Brigade, and I have received your call for help and come to the rescue.
What about your captain?" Liu Hailong interrupted the first mate's words in a hurried voice and asked again.
"Help, is the rescue team really coming, I just heard someone coaxing over there, crowding people on their backs, I didn't dare to go over, I didn't expect the rescue team to come!" The first mate's eyes widened in surprise when he heard this, and he grabbed Liu Hailong and said: "Help me, save me, the boat is starting to shake, and it is about to sink!"
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, and the rain slid down his cheeks.
"You are really the first mate of this ship, haven't you received any training in dealing with shipwrecks?" Liu Hailong couldn't understand the performance of the first mate, and couldn't help blurting out.
"I, our situation is a bit special, it's too late to explain now, in short, as long as you can guarantee my safety, there will definitely be a great benefit, I will definitely repay it..."
Now is indeed not the time to care about these idle matters, Liu Hailong frowned when he heard this, and interjected angrily: "It is our duty to rescue the shipwrecked ship, but if we want to fulfill this duty well, we must have the full cooperation of your captain."
Where the hell is he now?"
"He ran away," the first mate finally gritted his teeth and said, "That guy is an intermediate martial artist, and he ran away with a lifeboat as soon as the boat hit the rock, and he didn't even care about me."
What a goddamn piece of garbage!"
"Ran. In view of the strange phenomena on the shipwrecked ship, Liu Hailong was no longer surprised to hear this unexpected answer, and immediately made a secondary choice, "Since your captain is no longer on the ship, then according to the "Law of Shipwreck", as the first mate, you must fully fulfill the responsibilities of the captain.
Maintain order on ships in distress. ”
"I, what am I doing, maintaining order, no, no, no, I just want to get out of this broken ship and go to safety..."
But halfway through the words, he suddenly stopped, looking at the sky in the distance that shone straight from the broken dark cloud crack to the sea, constantly moving towards the passenger ship, and said dumbfounded: "Then, what is that?"
